I just finished reading a similar article. Apple now forcing C/C++ and Objective-C onto everybody. Absolutely ridiculous!!

It should not matter what language is used, but how well the application works on a device and integrates with other features of such a device. Clearly Apple disagrees with this. :-(

Please hold/continue this discussion on the fpc-other list. I've added a link at http://wiki.freepascal.org/iPhone/
iPod_development#Warning:_iPhone_OS_4.0 where you can submit comments to Apple, if you wish to do that.

Thanks,

Jonas
